The red band trailer for RIGHTEOUS KILL has hit the web and it’s so much better than the previous full trailer. This one’s got teeth and it comes off as more badass and macho because our two heroes, Al Pacino and Robert De Niro are just dropping F-bombs like nobody’s business… the difference between them cussing and other people cussing is that… they make it sound real easy and cool.
It’s clear to see from this new trailer that Robert De Niro’s character is the hothead while Al Pacino’s character is the one who always has to calm him down
The story have them wonder if a cop could be the serial killer who’s been killing criminals everywhere. With the bad temper, could it be Robert De Niro’s character? One thing I’ve learned from crime thriller like this is.. it’s always the one you least expected and it’s always the one closest to you.
SYNOPSIS:
A pair of veteran New York City police detectives are on the trail of a vigilante serial killer. After 30 years as partners in the pressure cooker environment of the NYPD, highly decorated Detectives David Fisk and Thomas Cowan should be ready for retirement, but aren’t. Before they can hang up their badges, they are called in to investigate the murder of a notorious pimp, which appears to have ties to a case they solved years before. Like the original murder, the victim is a suspected criminal whose body is found accompanied by a four line poem justifying the killing. When additional crimes take place, it becomes clear the detectives are looking for a serial killer, one who targets criminals that have fallen through the cracks of the judicial system. His mission is to do what the cops can’t do on their own–take the culprits off the streets for good. The similarities between the recent killings and their earlier case raise a nagging question: Did they put the wrong man behind bars?
RIGHTEOUS KILL opens September 12th, 2008
